I, too, see no point in delaying releases just because it hasn't been a month since you released the last one. Frankly, I don't see what the problem is with updating your servers. As long as the server hasn't crashed or gone into a loop like they did with last night's first update it is possible for it to autoupdate itself. My servers do this. I didn't have to do anything at all when that first update was released last night. As soon as the map change came, they updated. And even if they have crashed/gone into a loop, all that is required is for me to run my killserver script and they get killed, and that's the end of my involvement. They auto-restart themselves, and while doing so they check if they need to be updated or not. Even if you're looking after big server farms, I can't imagine this would be very hard to automate across the entire thing.
